Attached is an implementation of pop-up confirmation for SNS power supply control system. It was designed for more general use with no hard-coded PVs or Warning messages.

Subject: Button push confirmation
In our legacy system, we often pop up a dialog which asks "Do you really want to do this?", or "Please enter the reason for doing this", or "Who are you and why are you doing this?".
Does someone do something similar with EDM or other EPICS means? I can think of several ways to implement this, each of which is cumbersome. (Note to Bob: yes, even an SNL program could do it!)
